Alrighty. So I downloaded this fancy Blogger app on my iPod. We shall see how it goes!
This weekend I decided to dye this old white dress that I never wear. White isn't my color. So, I picked up a bottle of Rit at Michael's. I went with blue, figuring if anything I could freshen up some jeans with the extra dye.
After putting half a bottle of dye and a cup of salt into some scorching water, I was ready to turn that bad boy blue. I popped it in with a pair of Jim's jeans and stirred away for about 20 minutes. Once I pulled everything out and rinsed them in the sink, they got popped in the dryer for a quick cleaning. While I waited, I made an awesome nail polish holder out of an old spice rack!!
When I pulled the dress out of the dryer, it ended up looking great! Since the stitching wasn't all cotton like the dress, it didn't take the dye and stayed white. I thought it was a neat effect!
Jim's jeans also looked fresher. I can't believe I waited this long to try Rit. It is so easy! Now I will actually wear my dress. It was a successful, crafty weekend. I can't wait to see what else in my closet could use a color change!
